Conversation

In this age of social media,apps and 60 second celebrity status it appears the that conversation has become a less valued element in society.of course that would depend on your age and circle of influence.
I have had two really interesting conversations this week.One was spent listening to a friend I have known for some years, another with a stranger in the park in the sunshine.
I found both really interesting and vibrant,they were entertaining and full of life.I laughed as my friend shared something of his life,he had a degree in electrical engineering of which had no idea.He lived in LA California too.
We know so little really about friends,excellent to have conversation.My concern is that the generations who have only ever known the www and apps etc will have very short focussed relational chats.Will it effect their employment prospects?
